Jaws has horror elements, but it's also action/ adventure, thriller, and buddy flic all rolled into one.

Pigeonholing it as horror is dumb.

JP has sci fi elements, but the main point is action/adventure. It has absolutely zero horror elements.

Alien has some horror, psycho thriller aspects and some action. I could call it half horror, but not a full on horror movie.

Jaws/Alien/Jurassic Park are questionable for a lot of people (mostly JP) because they're so effective at being a handful of genres rolled into one. They're like the grandfathers of that imo. THEY'RE ALL KINGS

One of the big things about jaws was that it didn't fit into any one genre, but fit perfectly into so many of them. The other 2 seem to be similar.

no

Jaws I'd classify as a thriller if I had to pick just one genre but is more horror than Jurassic Park cuz it's less adventure more slasher

And yeah Alien is clearly horror?? idk how there can be any debate on that

I think it borrows some elements from a horror movie but I wouldn't label it as one.

I say no, but I don’t think it’s scary either.
